What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (42 Viewers)

Funny you post this. I was looking around for something like this since I work on HD diesels(Peterbilt/Freightliner) and thought why not on a 1HD.
Google kept directing me to WitsEnd
Is this something you're carrying the torch on now or have been?

I have 50 bracket sets laser cut at the moment. I'll be welding them out a few at a time as interest continues.

Nice, were those for 1HZ/1HD motors by chance?

 

[SNLC]

These axles are getting all the goodies. RCVs, 4.56 gears, Eaton lockers and a bunch of OEM parts.

Cheers

Made some poor financial decisions last weekend and these showed up at my door today. Weird.

Best tires I've ever had on my 80. Heavy but awesome.

Passed smog
Title transferred
Stickers and the packing tape used for all the FS signs removed
Broken column clamshell removed
Removed the 3rd brake light, its not working. I will stick the meter on it tomorrow.
Removed the running boards, It looks so much better now. I just need to remove the hideous brown stripes that are painted on.

Thankfully I got a set of factory wheels too, They are in ruff shape but ill get them cleaned up and get some decent tires. I'm not a fan of these 4runner wheels.

Coming along and looks good! Stripe doesn't really offend me. Check out @musthave to refinish your OEM's...plus they will be 8"...the Taco's are probably 7".

I bought some new lights to put on my son's truck, but he blew up the motor and the truck is sitting at my brothers in Idaho. So I decided to try out the lights on the 80 until I can get my son's truck home to start work on the motor etc.

6.5" Trailblazer Driving Lights from LED-Colight. For an average size light they put out a lot of light and I dig the DRL. You can set up the DRL to be amber or white and can make it a turn signal also. I chose white DRL and no Turn Sig. Impressive little lights I think. Gonna be sweet on my kids truck. I'll be pulling these back off and moving them to my son's truck and keeping my 9" lasers on the cruiser.

I have purchased a bunch of different lights from these guys and they continue to impress me so I keep going back to them. My roof lights are also from them and the 9" laser spotlights I usually run on my bumper are from them. Because I have purchased a bunch from this company they sent me a message at the time I bought these Trailblazer lights and gave me a small discount and said I could share a link to get these light (and others) with a 15% discount. The link is on my Instagram @boxrocket_adventures if anyone is interested. Discount code for the Trailblazers is AdamTolman15. Code for anything else on there site is just AdamTolman.

I also tackled a bit of work on my rear bumper. Being 20 years old (DIY project) it has taken a beating. It was getting pretty rusty so I pulled it off to clean it up. I sanded it to bare metal and welded in some step pockets in the wings. Sprayed it with Raptor Liner and added some small LED turn signals since my 37" spare kinda blocks the passenger side taillight. Now I need to do the same with my swingouts.

Is that an oem Toyota 4500 twin cam decal on the quarter panels? I wonder if someone knows the part number. Looks clean.

Third set I’ve had. Started with the tall skinnies on my taco. Big fan of these tires. #teamtoyo

I hand-made a wooden steering wheel for the 80 series, putting it up for auction all proceeds to go a charity of your choice. God bless us all

OEM Part# TOEA-858 or OEA-859. I think there are dark & light ones for use on light or dark paint scheme.

50 sets in the production queue with trays. I'm making 10 extra trays for the guys that just bought the tools a couple months back.

Also these will be case hardened as well compared to plain as previous runs were.

That was my weekend project. Great minds think alike.

Glad someone took the idea and ran with it and can be trusted.

Well I ran a few batches of these for that other guy...... Just increasing the quality, slight changes after using them multiple times in a shop setting (need a couple tweaks) and offering to the group again.

I will have to look into getting a set down the road. Is there a plan on make these for a while?

Hey Jason, is it possible to pre-order these or do we have to wait until theyre posted on your website and it's first come and first serve?

 

[voorland80]

Wonder if there is something out there as a blank plate to cut out for the inverter so its not so open like that?

like this idea
wrecking yard will have plenty of good options to fill gap

As with all of my products... if there is interest... I will keep making them.

 

[Kabanstva]

No, not until I have them ready to package I won't sell.... Just a policy of mine. Especially on these since they are being shipped out for case hardening.

I'm hoping for my annual New Year's Day sale but may be a week or so after. This time of year is always hard to estimate with the holidays and others scheduling.

Awesome!
